Formica Group Hi. The Marbella edge is a profile offered by our friends at VT Industries. VT provides some great literature on its site about the edge and how it's fabricated to eliminate dark edges on all sides. Hope this helps. http://www.vtindustries.com/docs/countertop-specification-sheets/vt_fine_laminate_countertops_marbella_specification_sheet_0811.pdf

melsteinberg what material are the countertops

Formica Group This is Formica® Calacatta Marble 180fx®. Here’s more info from our website: http://bit.ly/13BvcUZ .

Formica Group Wood. But, unfortunately, we can't offer any insight beyond that as we do not design these kitchens. Our knowledge beyond our surfacing products is limited. Thanks for reaching out.

Formica Group No, these cabinets are not Formica Laminate.

Formica Group Thanks for the inquiry. Unfortunately, we don't have information on all of the features of this kitchen as this is a real homeowner's house and not a staged kitchen we created for our product photography. If our designers can find out the dimensions of the island from the homeowners, we’ll post it on this discussion thread. Thanks again for reaching out.

Formica Group Hi. Thanks for the inquiry. Below, I'm linking the locations on formica.com (both in English and French) where you will be able to order the Calacatta Marble sample.

mam1 bepsf--yes, that's kind of been my thinking. I was just wondering how it would look as just a backsplash but I think we will just go with a large, subway field tile. Thank you for your input!! Mary Ann

mam1 carolinavgentry: Thanks for the link on the pros/cons of white marble. Very insightful! Mary Ann
